New Matter

New Matter is a small series of paintings by Aidan Myers forming his 2016 solo exhibition at Line Gallery in Stroud, UK. Myers only made 6 painting during this series, a continuation from the Manoeuvred Matter project that had greater emphasis on colours and the impasto surfaces. The series was certainly inspired by his interests of the figure and studies of human anatomical structures also formed the basis to his compositions. The work was created in early 2016 after his first major solo show, Manoeuvred Matter. During this time, Myers was working as an artist in residence at the INC Space graduate program at Cardiff School of Art & Design.
